Zakker ◊ 2013-01-29 20:23	a Lanchester 40hp radiator is broader and lower. This is a 21hp built in 1926 and owned by someone living in Dublin so does fit with the filming location
dsl ◊ 2013-01-29 21:05	Still a blank on plate check sites, and not dateable from Glass's (so likely to be pre-1929). -- Last edit: 2013-01-29 21:09:53
